Optical Lens Manufacturing

Lens manufacturing professionals do not typically sell lenses to the public; the lenses are manufactured according to exact specifications and sold on the wholesale market to companies that utilize them to make stereoscopic, compound and digital microscopes, cameras and eyeglasses.

Laboratories, schools, opticians and other professions work with lens manufacturers for the lenses they need, which may eventually make it into the hands of the consumer, as in the retail eyeglass or contact lens retail locations. Because lens manufacturing is such a specialized field and because the end user is working with exact restraints, the lens manufacturer must be of the highest caliber.

A lens manufacturer such as Universe Optics utilizes the services of quality assurance professionals throughout the manufacturing process to maintain compliance and adherence to quality standards. The examinations performed throughout the process assure the client that the end product is of the caliber they’d intended.

The technology behind the manufacture of lenses can also include the introduction of anti-reflective coatings. There is also a lens manufacture process that incorporates new materials such as silicon hydro gel to make a higher oxygen permeable contact lens.

Lens manufacturers understand the intricacies of glass structure and implement careful monitoring throughout the lens manufacturing process to deliver lenses that are excellent in design and symmetry. Universe Optics provides standard and custom lens assemblies for scanners, CCTV, CCD/CMOS, medical imaging, surveillance systems, machine vision and night vision systems.
